Bulgarian Empire

Unparalleled blessings and misfortunes do not come singly!

When the meeting was about to end, the quartermaster spoke up: Generals, our material reserves have dropped so much that domestic supplies simply can't keep up with consumption! If the intensity of the war continues like this, we will run out of ammunition before next month. !

Suborovich's face changed greatly. He just noticed that the attack was blocked before, but he didn't expect the supplies to be consumed so quickly! Subconsciously asked: Isn't there a two-month reserve? How can it be consumed so quickly?

The quartermaster said with a wry smile: We underestimated the consumption of ammunition, which is based on the consumption of the previous war, with an increase of 20% for reserve! However, due to funding problems, ours only completed 8% of the plan. Ten! The actual consumption of ammunition now exceeds the plan twice!

Everyone's face changed greatly, they were really afraid of what to do! Everyone was busy fighting before, and didn't have the energy to care about the consumption of ammunition. After only a few days of fighting, the logistics couldn't keep up!

Suborovich's face was ashen, and he said fiercely: No matter what method you use, you must ensure the supply of materials on the front line! The war has just begun, so the supplies will not be available so soon? What is your logistics department doing? have to?

The quartermaster said aggrievedly: General Suborovvic, this is impossible! You probably have the ammunition reserves in Serbia!

Here is a list of ammo for the last few days, you can all check it out! The ammunition produced by the domestic arsenal in one month is not as much as you shoot out in one day!

Today's weapons and ammunition are basically imported from abroad. The cost of buying ammunition in our Nis Theater alone is as high as tens of thousands of pounds every day!

If you add other regions, the daily cost of ammunition is more than 100,000 pounds!

If the consumption of other materials is added, the daily war cost is even more huge! You can do the math, anyway, even if you shoot me now, there is nothing you can do!

Hearing the quartermaster's helpless words, Suborovich choked on the spot! He took the list and looked at it carefully, the more he looked back, the bluer his face became!

The ammo consumption is really amazing, completely beyond his expectations! The consumption of millions of bullets and thousands of shells every day has exceeded the limit of logistical supplies!

At this rate of consumption, in another half a month, the Serbian army will have to go into battle with bayonets!

Suborovich rubbed his forehead. As the commander-in-chief of the front line, he considered not only the Niš area, but also the overall situation!

Niš City is an important town in southern Serbia, where more than six layers of strategic materials from all over the country gather here! Now the materials here can't support the war consumption, so other areas may be even worse!

He asked coldly, Have you reported it to China?

The quartermaster said honestly: I reported it two days ago, but the country believes that as long as the enemy army is annihilated, our ammunition consumption will drop!

Suborovich stared at the quartermaster and asked coldly, Why didn't you report to me in advance?

The quartermaster said suspiciously: We have organized the amount of ammunition received by the troops every day into documents and sent them to you!

Suborovich was silent. It was no fault of the quartermaster. He was so busy fighting every day that he couldn't care about any documents!

After thinking about it, he said in a tone that could not be rejected: In this case, then all the troops in the future should start saving ammunition. From now on, the quarters will supply limited ammunition! I will try my best to urge the country to find a way, but it will take time. Even if it is imported from abroad, it will take more than a month at the earliest! No matter what...

...

The war minister far away in Belgrade is now on the verge of collapse! The war has just begun, and the troops on the front line are reaching out to them for supplies!

And one has a bigger appetite than the other,

Ivan Ritchie's division on the southwest front; Suborovich's main force in the Nis region; the southeast front did not reach out, but the war minister would rather they reach out!

No matter what, it is better than the direct annihilation of the entire army. Although there are still troops resisting in the southeast front line, the Minister of War knows that it will not be a climate!

Holding the letter of request for help, the Minister of War once again found the Prime Minister. Before he could speak, the Prime Minister asked firstly, Did the front line lose another battle, or where did the supplies go?

The Minister of War said with a wry smile: Commander-in-chief Nish, Suborovich is urging supplies and reinforcements!

The Prime Minister glanced at the document, and after a moment of silence, said: This matter is very difficult to handle! Our reserves have been exhausted, and now the main materials are imported from the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

Tell General Suborovich that if he can eat the Bulgarians in front of him, then even if he sells iron, I will get it for him!

The Minister of War asked suspiciously: But Your Excellency Prime Minister, it is impossible for us to take out 150 artillery pieces and 50,000 troops to reinforce it now??

The Prime Minister explained coldly: Of course I can't get it, not to mention the artillery and the army. Even those ammunition, we can't get it together in a short time!

The Minister of War looked at the Prime Minister at a loss, looking at the Prime Minister for an explanation!

The Prime Minister sighed and said: It's very simple, in the current situation, we want to have a decent ending, and we must show some performance on the battlefield! Under the current situation, in addition to the Nis area, which still has an advantage, and there is hope to break the situation, we also Are there other options?

As long as Suborovich can win in the Nis area, all the troops that have retreated from the southeast and southwest will be assigned to him, and then the three divisions that have just been formed will be sent to him, not to mention fifty thousand, even ten Wan Dajun has it!

Then take advantage of the big victory, negotiate with the Bulgarians, and get a decent ending!

The Minister of War asked with some fear: Don't we have no other choice? Once we have won the victory in the Nish area, we will immediately send troops to the southeast and cut off the back road of this branch. We have a great chance to win. This war!

The Prime Minister said coldly: It's all based on assumptions! The Bulgarians are not stupid, can't they mobilize the whole country??

Or simply don't fight with us, and directly spend time with us. Every day is small and small, and it doesn't take long, a few months can drag us to death!

no solution anymore! Now the amount of money consumed every day is huge. In order to raise funds, even the currency reserves have been used. If the war is not ended within this month, we will not be able to support it at all!

Moreover, another part of Bulgaria's division has broken through the southeastern defense line, and their target is still uncertain, so it has to be guarded!

What if they were a little bolder, didn't care about logistics, and chose between Kragujevac and Belgrade?
